Come and join us for a tour of Peter Island. You'll also find details about arriving at the Beef Island Airport and reaching our tropical island paradise.

Click to enlarge map of Peter Island Peter Island is surrounded by the Atlantic Ocean, Caribbean Sea, Drake's Channel, six breathtaking bays, and 20 secluded coves. Located four miles south of Tortola, it is the fifth largest of the loose array of 60 islands, cays and exposed reefs that comprise the British Virgin Islands.

The main resort complex is situated on the north and east side of our vast island which has 1,800 acres of lush mountainous terrain, miles of hiking trails, and five gorgeous white sand beaches.

Deadman's Bay holds our largest and most spectacular beach which has towering coconut palms lining calm, protected waters for excellent windsurfing, sailing, snorkeling, and other watersports. Tennis Courts, Watersports Pavilion, and the Fitness Center are nearby. Our Beach Bar & Grill is located there, and our Beachfront Suites are nestled into colorful gardens at the west end of the huge crescent shaped bay.

Little Deadman's Bay and Beach is an extension of its senior and a good spot for snorkeling. This area draws yachts of every size and kind which quietly anchor just offshore.

Honeymoon, the resort's most intimate beach near Cabey Point, offers only two lounge chairs beneath a single thatched hut. Island tradition dictates that lovers pay tribute to the beach at least once during their stay -- one couple at a time, of course!

Big Reef Bay lies a short walk across the hillside from Deadman's Bay. Stretching three-quarters of a mile, its brilliant wave-crashing shoreline is idyllic for beach combing and romantic sunset walks. The resort's fitness trail also winds along this palm-lined beach. Round trip distance from our marina to Big Reef Bay is 1.4 miles.

White Bay's Beach is favored for its privacy and breathtaking views of Norman and St. John Islands. Snorkeling on either side of the bay, where fish literally eat out of extended hands, is the best on the island. Its sparkling white sands is a perfect place to enjoy an exquisite picnic lunch. A 3.4 mile round-trip walk or complementary van ride from our marina and reception area provides outstanding vistas along the way.

At the heart of the resort, massive palms usher guests from the marina, past peaked roofs of guest room cottages and a stylish resort boutique, into our open-sided lobby and reception area. This adjoins the Drake's Channel Lounge and Tradewinds Restaurant which overlook our freshwater pool, sea-side library, and Tortola in the distance.

A short walk over a hill leads past the dive shop to the Beachfront Suites, Deadman's Bay Beach, and our casual Beach Bar & Grill. A spa and full-service fitness center is further along the shoreline, as is a full array of watersports equipment. You'll find our tennis courts hidden in the low hills behind the beach restaurant.

Peter Island Doesn't Have Everything

It doesn't have:
  • A single parking lot, private car or street.
  • Televisions to distract relaxing vacations with a touch of the remote.
  • Any structures rising higher than the mast of a 40 foot yacht.
  • A housekeeper who makes interruptive wake up calls each morning.
  • More than one guest per 10 acres -- ever.
  • Jewelry making, rumba lessons, or beach Olympics.
  • Fast food restaurants, T-shirt shops or a Starbucks.
  • Cruise ships docking to unload hundreds of passengers.
  • Anything but open arms for parents traveling with children over eight.
  • A guest who ever wants to leave . . .
